I ask whether an app works with the equipment already in the house, whether its permissions match its purpose, and whether another person could use it without a walkthrough. A frame companion should make choosing photos straightforward; a recorder should make saved clips easy to find. For network tools, I value readable information over a screen full of unexplained figures. I also distinguish a tool that helps identify a connection problem from one that can actually change a device setting.
